Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1483

Chapter 1483: No...

Atticus frowned.

"I thought we’d gone past this, grandpa. This is just how things are now."

"Exactly," Magnus replied. "Which is why you need to escape... and leave us behind."

"What are you talking about?"

"If we both fall here, then our family on Eldoralth falls with us."

Atticus’ brow tightened.

"Bu—"

"Don’t fight it, Atticus." Magnus placed both hands on his shoulders. "This is the only way. Deep down, you know it."

Atticus gritted his teeth and tore away from him.

"No. Hell no. What you’re asking me to do is... no. I won’t do it."

"Atticus."

"I won’t!"

Atticus’ will flared violently around him, heat rippling off his body, but Magnus didn’t back away.

"You were right about one thing, son. Action speaks louder than guilt." A small, sad smile appeared on his lips.

"Unfortunately, my grandson has grown far too monstrous for me to ever surpass. So I’ll lessen your burden in the only way I still can. This is it."

Magnus slowly bowed his head.

"Please, son. Accept this old man’s pathetic request."

Atticus staggered back, eyes trembling. His gaze snapped to Kiara.

"Don’t tell me you also support this madness?"

But Kiara dropped to her knees instantly and bowed her head.

"I know I’m asking too much of you... we barely even know each other," she said with a shaky voice. "But please... protect her."

"You’re not serious..."

He looked between Magnus and Kiara, stunned. He could feel the seriousness in their demeanor. They were determined.

"There has to be another way..."

He turned away sharply, mind spiraling. Using Logoth flickered through his thoughts, but he crushed the idea. Logoth would erase everything he felt and force him into cold logic.

Emotions were the only thing keeping him anchored.

’There has to be something else I can do.’

"There! Over there! Unleash your attacks!"

Atticus’ eyes narrowed.

’They’ve surrounded us.’

He’d been too distracted to quickly notice the champions closing in on them.

"Atticus!"

Atticus ignored Magnus’ cry and blurred in front of the duo, enveloping them in his will. He tore into the sky as the attacks of the champions crashed down on where they’d been.

Smoke and ash bellowed into the sky, but Atticus had become a blur moving around the city.

"He’s over there!"

"Don’t fear! He can’t harm us! Follow him!"

The champions locked onto him in the sky, each one surging towards him with speed.

"Die!"

They unleashed attacks that blotted the skies, each one surging towards Magnus and Kiara. But Atticus weaved through each one, dragging Magnus and Kiara with him.

’Another way.’

As he moved, his mind churned like never before.

He couldn’t keep on running like this. Though he was faster than the champions, they were all over the territory. The second he appeared somewhere, he was swarmed by the champions.

’I don’t have much time. I have to think.’

Atticus could understand his grandfather’s thoughts. They had clearly trapped him here for a reason. There was all possibility that a strong foe was coming here. Any time wasted could lead to their doom.

Still, Atticus ignored Magnus’ burning gaze and focused.

He couldn’t attack any champions. Magnus and Kiara were far too weak to fight them. Escape was impossible...

’For both of them.’

Atticus’ eyes flashed past the city to the distant forest.
